Default My Space found this offensive

Believe it or not, My Space www.myspace.com found this picture offensive!



Believe it or not! Sixshooter AKA Vicky my wife had her profile picture removed as inappropriate and offensive.
Problem is, the people at “My Space” cant be reached easily to get their opinion on this.
From what I gather, if some one claims a pic is offensive it is simply removed with out question.

What are your thoughts on this?


Ps Vicky's profile is http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm...endid=62144499

I think that myspace doesn't need us. That's the bottom line. They want to accept a simple picture like that, an obvious hunting pic, as being offensive I don't think that any of us need to waste our time with them.

Holy COW, you guys had your posts up before I could proof read mine!
In support for Vicky, a few of her friends took that pic and made it their profile pic...



You can contact My Space and ask them about it at http://collect.myspace.com/index.cfm...c.contactInput

Prolly would've been acceptable to them if she was naked or trying to "hook up".

FWIW I think it's a great photo, I have a similar one somewhere, my silhouette against a sunset riding my motorcycle across a small bridge.
